No, I didn't compile my own kernel.
I started with the two floppies, and did a net install of stable.
I downloaded the go-woody script and and let it rip and tried to act

unfortunately, cups didn't find it there. Thanks for the suggestion
though.

I don't know what sort of printer you're using, but some printers have an
option at the printer console itself to Print Separator Page or Print
Separator Page After Each Job.
Is it only under linux that you have this problem with this printer? If
not, you may want to read your printer
